Boil on toe,clear jelly like pus. treated with antibiotic ointment. boil dry up but grow again in 2 weeks.

Is it an infection? : Clear jelly like 'pus' is not typical of bacterial infection. Is it something else? Perhaps a ruptured ganglion. I would suggest seeing a podiatrist if possible or any doctor if not.
